Title: Late early carrots?
Post by: caroline7758 on June 06, 2009, 19:14:00
I seem to have amassed several packets of Early Nantes carrots. Can I still sow them? Doe the "early" refer to the harvest rather than the sowing?

the early does relate to the short sow - harvest period!! ;)

Exactly, "early" is a bit of a misnomer really............it should be "quick", or at least where carrots and I are concerned........."quicker if at all".  ;D

Ok, no problem then- could just do with some more dustbins, but will try them in the ground again.
